Controlling Feature Flags in Production: A Guide to Rule-Creation and Managing Feature Releases
In this workshop, we'll take you through creating your first flag, setting some rule targeting and finally, we'll end with a section on how to trigger flags from your IDE. We'll be doing this via REST API calls before jumping into the LaunchDarkly extension in VSCode, allowing you to trigger a release from the comfort of your IDE.
Attendees will leave this session with an understanding of:
- How specific targeting and rule sets work with feature flags
- An understanding of server-side flags vs client-side flags along with their various uses
- An introduction to how flags can be from the perspective of a developer versus a release manager
